Heart Buckle Cover

I found this today, I've done some research and appears to possibly be from the Civil War era. There are some on ebay for sale and two other Posts here on TNet
either way sure beats a stick in the eye

Nice find. I have about a handful I've pulled out of three confirmed civil war sites. Some larger than others. Whatever u do don't put civil war in any part of your listing with that picture. You will get eaten alive on here

Thanks for the heads up guys. I'm pretty sure it wasn't from the Civil War being that Texas was only a supply state. Possible CW era? All the links I've found don't give a positive answers, only suggestions lol

Even if it wasn't in the Civil War, imagine.. if it was a wife could of given that to her young husband going off to fight the yankees to remember her love. The possibilites are endless!
